25 Biggest WTF Moments From 2017 Movies

9. Rooney Mara Eats A Pie For 5 Minutes - A Ghost Story

Perhaps the most talked-about and debated scene from any "art-house" movie this year was the infamous pie-eating sequence in David Lowery's stunning micro-budget drama A Ghost Story.

The film revolves around a woman, M (Rooney Mara), who recently lost her husband, C (Casey Affleck), in a car accident. As she goes about her life, the ghost of C continues to watch her, draped over a white sheet, observing the passage of time over decades.

In the much-discussed scene, a freshly-grieving M miserably eats an entire pie in her kitchen in one sitting, which Lowery depicts in one prolonged five-minute sequence, transpiring largely over one lengthy take.

It's a devastating, deliberate and highly unconventional way to depict C's heartbreak, forcing the viewer to zero-in on her face, all while C's ghost stands silent in the background. It's a beautiful, weird scene, though it's totally understandable why a lot of people hate it.
